# Minio FreeBSD Quickstart Guide [](https://slack.minio.io)

### Minio with ZFS backend - FreeBSD
 | 
						|
This example assumes that you have a FreeBSD 11.x running
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Start ZFS service
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
sysrc zfs_enable="YES"
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Start ZFS service
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
service zfs start
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Configure a loopback device on the `/zfs` file.
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
dd if=/dev/zero of=/zfs bs=1M count=4000
 | 
						|
mdconfig -a -t vnode -f /zfs
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Create zfs pool
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
zpool create minio-example /dev/md0
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
df /minio-example
 | 
						|
Filesystem    512-blocks Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
 | 
						|
minio-example    7872440   38 7872402     0%    /minio-example
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Verify if it is writable
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
touch /minio-example/testfile
 | 
						|
ls -l /minio-example/testfile
 | 
						|
-rw-r--r--  1 root  wheel  0 Apr 26 00:51 /minio-example/testfile
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Now you have successfully created a ZFS pool for further reading please refer [ZFS Quickstart Guide](https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/zfs-quickstart.html)
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
However, this pool is not taking advantage of any ZFS features. So let's create a ZFS filesytem on this pool with compression enabled. ZFS supports many compression algorithms: [`lzjb`, `gzip`, `zle`, `lz4`]. `lz4` is often the most performant algorithm in terms of compression of data versus system overhead.
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
zfs create minio-example/compressed-objects
 | 
						|
zfs set compression=lz4 minio-example/compressed-objects
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To monitor if your pools are healthy.
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
zpool status -x
 | 
						|
all pools are healthy
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Start Minio service
 | 
						|
Install [Minio](https://minio.io) from FreeBSD port.
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
pkg install minio
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Enable minio and configure minio to use ZFS volume mounted at `/minio-example/compressed-objects`.
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
sysrc minio_enable=yes
 | 
						|
sysrc minio_disks=/minio-example/compressed-objects
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Start minio.
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
service minio start
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Now you have an Minio running on top of your ZFS backend which transparently provides disk level compression for your uploaded objects, please visit http://localhost:9000 to open Minio Browser.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
#### Stop Minio service
 | 
						|
In-case you wish to stop Minio service.
 | 
						|
```sh
 | 
						|
service minio stop
 | 
						|
``` |
